a. Pop. size is 10x>sample size, np=66 and n(1-p)=234, so both are greater than 10.
b. z = (.20 – .22) / .024 = -.83 so P(z > -.83) = 1 - .2033 = .7967.
3. The weights of newborn children in the United States vary according to the normal distribution with mean 7.5 pounds and standard deviation 1.25 pounds. The government classifies a newborn as having low birth weight if the weight is less than 5.5 pounds.
a. z = (5.5 – 7.5) / 1.25 = -1.60 so P(z < -1.60) = .0548

b. mean = 7.5 and standard deviation 1.25/root(3) = .722?
